Description

Stateful functions is using a custom ClusterEntryPoint that is based on org.apache.flink.runtime.entrypoint.JobClusterEntrypoint.

The reason we have our own entry point is that we need to setup the userClassPath (all the artifacts found under /opt/statefun/modules/*)

But having our own entry point might lead to a code rot and miss important improvements (for example [1]) or bugfixes.

This issue is to track how can we remove our custom entry point and reuse the existing ones (perhaps with enhancement)
